-
Connect the device to the network's gas supply outlet (air or O
-
Connect the device's outlet (nipple or Ø 9 mm safety jar) to the collection jar using a suction tube with a minimum diameter of
-
Turn the regulation knob on the front of the device anti-clockwise and set the vacuum level with the patient circuit closed off
-
To stop the suction, set the regulation knob to its closed position.
Quick-fit safety jar
-
Fitting: insert and twist under the VENTURI TM2:
Line up the mark on the cover of the safety jar with
the mark on the skirt under the body of the VENTURI TM2,
then rotate the jar ninety degrees clockwise (moving the mark to the right).
-
Removing: turn the safety jar to the left, line up the mark on
the cover of the safety jar with that on the skirt under the body
of the VENTURI TM2 then pull the jar downwards.
Plastic filter
-
Fitting: push in fully until it clicks into place
-
Removing: pull and twist at the same time.
-
Dispose of the filter by observing the appropriate precautions.

6. Safety advice
-
The VENTURI TM2 should only be used by qualified medical personnel.
-
Effect of supply gas pressure: caution, check the pressure delivered by the gas supply. This has an impact on the maximum vacuum
maximum vacuum levels and suction flow rates are only generated when the supply line pressure is 4.5 bar or greater.
-
Always test the operation of the device prior to use.
-
If the device is dropped, always make arrangements for the display accuracy to be checked.
-
Never obstruct the device's air exhaust.
-
Make sure that the needle (or digital display) indicates 0 when the device is not being used.
-
Make sure that the device is always fitted with an antibacterial filter in the suction circuit.
-
Caution: the length of the tubing may have an impact on suction performance.
-
Caution: the measurement tolerance of the vacuum level display increases when the device is used outside its specified ranges of ambi
pressure.
-
Do not dispose of the antibacterial filters in a bin for domestic waste.
-
Contact an authorised organisation to arrange for end-of-life disposal. The digital version of the VENTURI TM2 contains materials (electronic circuit and
batteries) that are toxic for the environment.
